Description
Background
LDAP authentication login user name is case insensitive. For example, user account "USER1" and "user1" should point to the same LDAP account and allow log in
Problem
CouchBaser server LDAP Auth Setup is case sensitive. When Couchbase Administrator map LDAP user "UsEr1" within LDAP Auth page, user required to type in user name as "UsEr1" for proper LDAP authentication. This is not an expected behavior.
Request
Update LDAP user name mapping to be case insensitive
